What’s the deal with people saying the Sphere is actually bad for concerts or live shows? Isn’t more tech and visuals supposed to be a good thing?

I’ve seen a bunch of arguments about this online, and honestly, I can kind of see both sides. Some folks think the Sphere is making concerts too focused on special effects and not enough about the actual live music. Like, my uncle went to a show and said he felt like he was watching a movie instead of being at a real concert, and he missed the vibe of a crowded, sweaty club where you can see the band up close.

People say the tech and all the visuals can sometimes distract from the artists or make it harder to just vibe out to the music. Especially for older fans who grew up with tiny venues or outdoor festivals, the Sphere feels a bit too much like sensory overload. But at the same time, others (like me, honestly) think it’s awesome to see bands and DJs try new things and give everyone a reason to want to go out instead of just watching at home.

So, yeah, not everyone loves the high-tech stuff, but it does make the Sphere different. If you want music and visuals that blow your mind, it’s perfect. If you want just the music, you might not totally love it.
